摘要:After 1984 and following economic liberalisation,
income inequality in Mexico increased. Some of the main factors that
contributed to this trend are the relative expansion of the average
income in the service sector in relation to the agricultural sector,
which is consistent with arguments such as the rise of services and
the reduction of rents in the traded sector, the increase in skill
premium, which is in keeping with the skill enhancing trade
hypothesis, and the fall in unionisation rates. On the other hand,
between 1998 and 2002, inequality fell gradually and some of the
factors driving this trend are the decrease in returns to skill and union
premium, and the stabilisation of unionisation rates.
